Anymore thoughts or experience with both cars? I'm in the same situation. Can't decide between a low mileage high spec 18' m550i vs 18' RS5 coupe. I say coupe because I would like the RS5 SB, but it's too new on used market and more than I want to spend. I don't require 4 doors, have just 2 people 99% of the time, or I'd just take our other SUV. I thought maybe an S5 SB. I test drove one once and although quick, it didn't excite me and had turbo lag or transmission lag or something. I could piggy back ecu and tune TCM to about 420hp and fix the lag, but wondered if I should have got an RS5 coupe although less practical. The RS5 con is lack of heated steering and no leather/stitched look dash on a $85k MSRP luxury coupe which is borderline pathetic. Build quality they say is good. The m550i has more luxury materials throughout with leather dash/door tops, but lacks the sweet virtual cockpit and looks of rs5.
